    Precision shots are headshots basically. Easiest way for this achievement would be to use either a sniper rifle or scout rifle and keep aiming for the head.

    You can get this achievement, like I did, in the early missions on Earth in Old Russia. Just keep killing Hive until the achievement pops. An easy mission to get this on would be "The Dark Within" since there are plenty of Hive throughout, especially towards the end when they keep coming in waves.

    You will know you have gotten a precision kill when the numbers showing the damage taken appear yellow. Stay alive and take cover when needed and you should get this no problem.

    To clear up something, you can die during the mission, but you cannot die in between the 25 precision kills. For example, you can die near the beginning of the mission, get your 25 kills, and still get your achievement. What you can't do is get 20 kills, then die, then get 5 more. You'd have to start over and get 25 more at that point.

    See the video below for a great place to get this achievement early. Thanks to squareonegames for making the video!

    Just to add too the other guides on here despite what the achievement title states this cheevo can be done on a patrol i.e. the free roam mode rather than during a mission.
